Teen who received vaccinations against parents' wishes invited to Senate hearing

An Ohio teen who gained notoriety after defying his parents' wishes and receiving vaccinations once he turned 18 will testify tomorrow at a Senate HELP Committee hearing on preventable disease outbreaks. In a videoposted to YouTube on Saturday, Ethan Lindenberger says he'll be “addressing misinformation that causes these outbreaks.” His announcement comes amid a nationwide measles outbreak that has sickened dozens, many of whom were unvaccinated children. Washington state public health officials said over the weekend that there are now 70 confirmed cases in Clark County, while Oregon officials have confirmed four cases related to that outbreak.
